Join us for a discussion of Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin. Recommended for adults. Registration recommended.   Spanning thirty years, from Cambridge, Massachusetts, to Venice Beach, California, and lands in between and far beyond, this is a dazzling and intricately imagined novel that examines the multifarious nature of identity, disability, failure, the redemptive possibilities in play, and above all, our need to connect: to be loved and to love. Yes, it is a love story, but it is not one you have read before. Copies of Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow are available at the library and as an eBook and Audiobook on Libby.

"An international bestseller and one of The Times's "Top 50 Novels Published in the 21st Century," Claire Keegan's piercing contemporary classic Foster is a heartbreaking story of childhood, loss, and love, now released as a standalone book for the first time ever in the US. It is a hot summer in rural Ireland. A child is taken by her father to live with relatives on a farm, not knowing when or if she will be brought home again. In the Kinsellas' house, she finds an affection and warmth she has not known and slowly, in their care, begins to blossom. But there is something unspoken in this new household-where everything is so well tended to-and this summer must soon come to an end.

Join us for our book discussion of Fuzz: When Nature Breaks the Law by Mary Roach. Registration is required. Participation is limited to 15. Each participant must register separately. Copies of the book will be available at the library.  Did you know that 300 years ago, animals that broke the law would be assigned legal representation and put on trial? How do you charge a bear caught breaking and entering? A jaywalking moose? How about a murderous tree? The answers are best found in science! Author Mary Roach tags along with animal-attack forensics investigators, human-elephant conflict specialists, bear managers, and more to learn about nature's lawbreakers - and about humanity itself. When it comes to "problem" wildlife, she finds, humans are more often the problem - and the solution.

Sally Milz is a sketch writer for The Night Owls, the late night live comedy show that airs each Saturday. With a couple of heartbreaks under her belt, she's long abandoned the search for love, settling instead for the occasional hook-up, career success, and a close relationship with her stepfather to round out a satisfying life. Enter Noah Brewster, a pop music sensation with a reputation for dating models, who signed on as both host and musical guest for this week's show. Dazzled by his charms, Sally hits it off with Noah instantly, and as they collaborate on one sketch after another, she begins to wonder if there might actually be sparks flying. But this isn't a romantic comedy- it's real life. And in real life, someone like him would never date someone like her . . . right? Registration is required (limit of 15 participants). Copies of the book are available at the Brandon library.  Image URL: https://s3.amazonaws.com/static.evanced.info/Customer/hcplc/81NTFPXUHLL._SY466__8807164.JPG

Join us for a discussion of Old God's Time by Sebastian Barry  Recommended for adults. Registration recommended. Synopsis: Recently retired policeman Tom Kettle is settling into the quiet of his new home, a lean-to annexed to a Victorian castle overlooking the Irish Sea. For months he has barely seen a soul, catching only glimpses of his eccentric landlord and a nervous young mother who has moved in next door. Occasionally, fond memories return, of his family, his beloved wife June and their two children, Winnie and Joe. But when two former colleagues turn up at his door with questions about a decades-old case, one which Tom never quite came to terms with, he finds himself pulled into the darkest currents of his past.
